Break, Break, Break

Break, break, break, 
   Break into blissful beat, break
   Break into dynamic dance, break
   Break into rapturous reverence, break
   For your bread and butter, break.

But breaking I will also break 
    Into woeful tears, break
    Into a panicky run, break:
    Tears for good days gone
    A run after decent meals, done.

Break, break, break
   Breaking we will break
   Two sides breaking.
